Last call for BBQ tickets!!  CURRENT BBQ TICKET REQUESTS bbq

PADDOCK PARKING is going to be a challenge, anyone with spare awning space who might accept some ‘beer money’ to let another car in would be doing everyone a favour. ….  waiting to hear about the use of the rally stage for trailer park and Motorhome/caravan parking.

Part of the Lotus Festival event

Two Grids, each with a quali and race each day. Can be entered as a car ‘share’ with different drivers each day or just as one day. Sharing with F3Cup championship rounds.

Brands GP Entry Summary V5

Grid splits were difficult for this one… but everyone now has a confirmed place.

LAST MINUTE CANCELLATIONS have allowed the entire 1600 class to move to grid 1 (away from the F3Cup cars) with the Duratecs going the other way.

For the eagle eyed,  the Nathan Corridon Reynard now correctly reclassified as a 2000 car due to the engine running on 2000 class injection. Update: Nathan has asked to run as ‘invisible for points’ with the Classic class on their grid and Championship Coordinators discretion has been applied to agree – providing this doesn’t make anyone a reserve. (V5 entry summary now required)

Paddock plan issue 1  N.B. Note from Stephen Green  ” It’s possible that all caravans and motor homes may have to be parked on the rally stage for this event as paddock space is severely limited.”

TIMETABLE … chance for a late start Sunday, or attend church, or recover from the BBQ the night before…. or even watch the Lotus events.

SCRUTINEERING:  Now arranged that F3Cup and Monoposto will be scrutineered in situ IN THE AWNINGS starting at 10.00am.  We have been asked to make sure all our competitors are signed on and someone is present with the car (who knows how to unwrap it, remove brake cylinder caps, turn on the rain light, turn off the master etc), with the sign on sheet and all the clothing/kit etc at 10.00am..please help your Mono team who will be doing pre scrutineering checks to make sure we can move the scrutineers through ASAP… anyone who misses these scrutineers will need to take the car to the scrutineering bay.

BBQ

Hi Everyone,

It’s that time of year again for the Monoposto Summer BBQ. This year it’s going to at Brands Hatch on Saturday 15^th August at 7PM in the paddock. I handed out ticket order forms to a lot of you at Snetterton. There is a copy attached for any of you who did not get one and also a copy of the menu attached.BBQ Ticket Order A5   Monoposto Summer BBQ Menu

To allay your fears, I’m only organising this event, not cooking as a number of you seemed a bit worried about that.

We need to know numbers beforehand so can you please get forms back to Steven as soon as possible and no later than Saturday 8^th August.

Please advise if any of your party have any food allergies.

If you want to pay cash, please return the form to Steven with the confirmed numbers and I will collect the cash from you on the day.

Whichever way you pay, all tickets will be handed out on the day.

If anyone has any questions then please contact Steven or me.

Best regards,

Terry Clark

It was good to meet you at Spa over the weekend.

I wanted to drop you an email, so that you have my contact details.

Pirelli will be in attendance for the below rounds of your championship, should anyone need any tyres – if they contact me prior to the event, I’ll ensure there is sufficient stock on board.

We can also send tyres out direct for the rounds that we won’t be in attendance.

25/26 July – Snetterton– Pirelli attending with GT Cup

15/16 –August – Brands GP – Pirelli attending with F3 Cup

31 August – Castle Combe – Pirelli attending with Ferrari Classic

19-20 September – Donington Park – Pirelli attending with GT Cup

26 September – Mallory Park –

10 October – Oulton Park – Pirelli attending with GT Cup

7 November – Donington Park

We currently stock plenty of the F3/F4 sizes, and I’ll be trying to source small quantities of smaller sizes to suit the other cars too. I’m sure this should cover the full grid (or close to).

160/530-13

180/530-13

200/540-13

250/575-13

Please don’t hesitate to contact me for any needs

Please note the races will be ROLLING STARTS.

Friday testing still available at Silverstone

TRACK LIMITS

Our Chief Clerk of Course has asked for our cooperation and support regarding track limits this coming weekend at Silverstone. The event will run to MSA regulations regarding track limits and these MUST be adhered to by competitors.

Silverstone are preparing for the British Grand Prix in just a few weeks and will not tolerate abuse of these regulations.

Individual competitors will be dealt with according to MSA regulations but in the event that non compliance becomes excessive there is the option to stop the session.

Each briefing will underline this point.

HERE!     Entry list V3    HERE!  …  ….

Anyone who is forced to withdraw, please advise MAC and Monoposto ASAP so that a reserve might be offered a place.

Notes

The codes are for admin and indicate how we have or will collect payment.

Reserves are indicated by the R… numbers

We could potentially qualify with all the reserves (limit is 20% extra reserves on track at one time)

On recent form, a  reserve prepared to take the gamble of getting a race and attending the event would ‘probably’ get that race… that means potential bad news for one competitor could become good news for a reserve – that is motorsport.  Reminder.. get your 3 laps in during qualifying!!

Testing timetable

Reserve procedure.

We don’t run pre-qualifying (not considered fair at our level of racing) so the procedure is:

1. We only know for certain how many entries we have at close of business 3 days before the event (that is the result of our very member friendly entry/cancellation policy which in this case proves less friendly to reserves) but will be asking people to be nice and let us know really early if they are pulling out.
2. Anyone attending as a confirmed entrant is ‘IN’ and anyone attending as a reserve is… a ‘RESERVE’!
3. We can run with 20% extra cars in qualifying than in the race (MSA rules)… one time at Silverstone there were more than 20% reserves and Simon obtained permission to run more reserves in total but not on track at the same time.
4. Reserves who run in qualifying are still reserves after qualifying, irrespective of the time they set (even if they set pole time!), but must have set their 3 laps at least to be considered to enter the race.
5. If any cars then withdraw (mechanical or accident) we let in the reserves who have ‘qualified’ in reserve order (order the entries were received).
6. Even if they aren’t officially in as the grid is formed, the remaining reserves can wait at the pitlane and if cars fail on the parade lap or right at the start, the Clerk of Course can opt to let them join the race.
7. Reserves who only qualify but don’t race get an 85% refund from the Club (Monoposto policy, not anything to do with MSA)
8. Get 3 laps in..
9. Get 3 laps in…..
10. Get 3 laps in……..

Here….

Tyres limit at Brands.

It is not our intention that Mono Championship Regulation 5.13.3 should apply at this event.

This will be covered within an official bulletin to be issued by the MSVR team in accordance with MSA procedures.

Entries Update

Silverstone GP

We are currently at 74 entries for a 54 car grid. (make that 73… a reserve just benefited from someone else being forced to cancel)

There aren’t any creative solutions to the over subscription at this meeting. This has been the case historically for this popular event although usually the reserves who decided to run on the day did get into the race even if they were waiting until the last moment strapped in their cars to find out.

In the past Mono have even qualified with more than the 20% over number of cars (with the creative solution of splitting the reserves so there were never more than the extra 20% on the track at one time)

As ‘natural wastage’ results in cancellations approaching the meeting we will keep the reserves informed and they can make their decision.

Any reserve who qualifies but is not then allocated a confirmed slot will receive an 85% refund from the club.

Snetterton 300

With the way the entry numbers have fallen, we have decided to use the same grid structure as at Brands Indy. This will allow all those people who were initially advised they were a reserve to now be contacted and offered a confirmed place.

Grids will be (but not necessarily in this order!)

Grid 1 = 2000, 1800, 1600 & Dtec

Grid 2 = Classic & Moto

Brands GP

With the addition of F3Cup and once again the way the entries have fallen, we plan moving from our previous default grid structure as this will allow all our current entrants to be confirmed.

Grids will be (but not necessarily in this order!)

Grid 1 = F3Cup, 2000, 1800, 1600 & Dtec

Grid 2 = Classic & Moto

Our intrepid Administrator had ‘a bit of an off’ at Shelsley Walsh while competing in a hill climb yesterday, resulting in some nasty injuries to her hand, a stay in hospital and some further surgery planned.

Naturally all at Mono wish her well.

PS e-mail sent to all Brands entrants (well those with e-mail accounts!) with an update.

Monoposto Championship

Cadwell 16/17 May 2015

Rounds 3 & 4

 The 2015 Monoposto championship comes to Kent after a strong initial two rounds at the lovely Cadwell Park circuit where many racers expressed delight at both the challenging nature of the circuit and the competitiveness of the racing.  With the less confined nature of the Brands Hatch Indy circuit the racing is potentially going to be equally exciting this weekend as we enjoy 2 capacity grids covering the Monoposto classes.

We do have a few Transponder info gaps in our registration database so do expect a chase up to ask for your number if we haven’t got it.

Hi Steven

It is good to hear from you.

Yes we do have some transponders for hire but as you may be aware drivers are supposed to have their own transponders as per MSA Blue Book.  If any are needed they are £30 cash only, drivers need to go to the timing room early on Saturday morning.  If there are a large number as it is the beginning of the season can you let me know as we will need to make special arrangements.  Transponders can be purchased from our website as below.

Please ensure that your drivers put their transponder numbers on their entry forms and that MSVR have an excel spreadsheet of all your entries including transponder numbers which they then send to us before each event.

Any queries do not hesitate to contact me

Best regards

Rita

Rita Ashman
Administration

There will be three grids at Cadwell Park to ensure that people get the opportunity to race.  Cadwell is only permitted 24 starters per grid and this was the best combination to ensure everyone gets to race.

• Grid 1 – Mono 2000 Classic, Mono 1800 and Mono DTEC
• Grid 2 – Mono Moto and Mono 1600
• Grid 3 – Mono 2000 + a few 2000 Classic’s who are topping up the grid with a half-price non-championship extra race.

We have been allocated the best area of paddock, but there is limited space so to be fair to all competitors, could trailers, caravans, motorhomes and other non-essential vehicles be parked out of the main paddock area and for those with large awnings to consider sharing.   With approx. 60 racing cars we need to work together.

During Sunday’s lunch break there will be a grid shot of all competitors cars.    We will be lining cars up, three abreast to get as many cars in the shot, and the cars will be gridded up in no particular order to highlight the variety of cars within Monoposto.    We would also like to get a ‘class of 2015’ photograph of drivers, suited and booted if possible (helmets not necessary for this).

This means that Mono2000 Classic, Mono1800 and Duratec cars may need to go straight to assembly area afterwards whilst the others go back to the paddock.

• Timetable 18 April Cadwell Issue TWO (revised timetable)
• Final Instructions Issue One
• Paddock Plan 18-19 April CP Issue ONE
• SR’s Issue ONE CP Full
• MSV Testing on Friday 17th

MSVR are able to offer a further day of racing on the Silverstone GP circuit on 12^th Sept.

This would NOT be a championship event and might be commercially organised by Monoposto or MSVR (to be decided)

Probable format would be one grid with 1 x quail and 2 x races.

Very aware the date is only a week before our Donington GP Championship weekend, as a non champ event it isn’t being ‘forced’ on anyone.

This might have a more ‘flexible’ approach to eligible cars than a normal meeting… so maybe a chance to bring out something/someone different  (Sorry Lou, can’t accept your F3000!)

At this stage ‘expressions of interest’ are invited so that we can see if there is a demand.  Please phone or e-mail me.
